Flotation therapy beds for adults are specialized hospital beds designed to reduce pressure on the body by distributing weight evenly across the mattress. They use moving media like water, air, or mud to create a floating sensation, helping prevent decubitus ulcers, improve circulation, and aid recovery for patients with limited body fat or severe burns.
These devices are typically mains-powered and may include temperature regulation for added therapeutic benefits. Regulation varies by region, but they are generally classified as medical devices and supplied in clinical settings for patient care, not for home use.
